Advanced Orthopedic Surgery Technology
GW Hospital is the first in Washington, D.C. to use the ROSA® (Robotic Surgical Assistant) Knee System for total joint replacements. The ROSA system helps surgeons perform procedures with greater accuracy. The fit of your implant is tailored to your unique anatomy.
